Topping:
- ▢1 tablespoon butter melted
- ▢1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine cooked sausage and cream cheese until completely combined.
- Add in remaining ingredients until well combined and chill 10 minutes to allow the flour time to absorb the moisture.
**If you skip chilling the dough they will flatten as they cook and not be nice round balls** - Drop onto a greased baking sheet (I like to use the silicone baking mats) using a small cookie scoop.
- Bake 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
- Optional last step: brush the tops of the pizza puffs with the melted butter Italian seasoning mixture.
- Serve with warm low carb marinara.

NOTES
Coconut flour: Almond flour can be used in place of coconut flour, but the bites wil not be as light and fluffy.
Marinara sauce: I dunk these keto-friendly pizza bites into Rao’s Low-Carb Marinara (not sponsored, just love it!).
